“It is clear the US is pushing the battle line to our door … We can completely regard the US arrest of Meng Wanzhou as a declaration of war against China.”
So read an editorial in the Global Times of China on December 6, the day after Meng Wanzhou, chief financial officer of the Chinese company Huawei was taken hostage by the Canadian and American governments on December 1. The daughter of the founder of China’s largest telecommunications company was arbitrarily arrested and detained by Canadian police in Vancouver in transit between planes on December 1 on the pretext of a US extradition request....The gloves are coming off.

David Stockman: But we have a newsflash for the casino: Goldilocks doesn’t have much pulse. It’s all over except the shouting.
And the tell for that was the stunning stupidity of last night’s announcement that the CFO of Huawei, the world’s largest telecom company, national champion of the Red Ponzi and pride and joy of Mr. Xi’s politburo, was nabbed by the US sanctions cops while making a flight change at the Vancouver airport.
For crying out loud. This latest victim of the Washington sanctions gestapo, Wanzhou Meng, is the daughter of the company’s founder, who, in turn, is one of China’s most revered and Beijing-connected industrialists.
But this isn’t just an "oops!" The loathsome neo-cons twins – Pompeo and Bolton – sitting on Trump’s right side at the Buenos Aires dinner apparently didn’t tell him that she was actually being nabbed at the very moment they were slicing their steak.
After all, the Chinese have a thing about saving face, and this stunt literally ripped Emperor Xi’s right off his forehead.
